18. It's always seemed to me a
bit odd when people
criticise Twitter because
of the 140-character limit.
I'm sure there are lots of
things you could criticise
Twitter for, but to suggest,
as some people like to do,
that a tweet isn't real
communication simply
because it's so brief is a
bit like suggesting that
Haiku isn't poetry just
because it's over almost
before it gets started.

41. Q: What’s the most
important thing on Twitter?
A: Notifications
twitter.com/i/notifications

42. twitter.com/i/notifications
Pay attention to
notifications

43. twitter.com/i/notifications

44. On Fridays
recommend who to
follow on
#FF = Follow Friday

45. Facebook + Twitter
Q: Can I set up Facebook so that posts
automatically upload to Twitter?
A: Yes, but what you gain in efficiency you lose
in legitimacy. Twitterers will know that you're
just giving it a pass.
Our recommendation: DO NOT auto-connect your
Facebook and Twitter accounts.

46. Twitter says to Facebook
‘Why are you following me?’
And Facebook responds
‘Because I like you.’
